This poem was written by an Australian Peacekeeping soldier stationed
Overseas. The following is his request. I think it is reasonable

PLEASE. Would you do me the kind favour of sending this to as many people as
You can? Christmas will be coming soon and some credit is due to all of the
Service men and women for our being able to celebrate these festivities.
Let's try in this small way to pay a tiny bit of what we owe. Make people
Stop and think of our heroes, living and dead, who sacrificed themselves
For us.

I have 2 girls - Stephanie and Lillian. I had 2 strokes (December 2008 and March 2009) and I'm slowly getting well. I have a dog called Glinda and 5 cats. Baby is my favorite cat - she is a manx and acts like a dog and growls, elc.
